To avoid milk with poor froth or large bubbles, always clean
the milk lid and hot water nozzle as described in the section

3. Make sure the milk intake tube is correctly inserted in the
bottom of the milk container lid (fig. 27).

5. Attach the container to the nozzle, pushing as far as it will
go (fig. 28).
6. Place a sufficiently large cup under the coffee spouts and
frothed milk spout (fig. 29). To use particularly tall cups/
glasses, lift the coffee and milk spouts (fig. 30).

hot water and steam leak out of the frothed milk spout.
Avoid contact with splashes of water.
After preparing a milk drink, the machine must

spout.

operation is shown on the display (fig. 34) and stops

4. Turn the dial back to one of the froth selections.

nozzle with a sponge (fig. 35).
